Welcome

In the Faith Lab in the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, we are developing and applying experimental and computational tools to understand the interactions between diet, the microbiota, and human health (with an emphasis on Inflammatory Bowel Disease).

Areas of interest to the laboratory include the manipulation of the gut microbiota and microbiome, the stability and inheritance of the microbiota, the interactions between our gut microbes and our immune system, and the development of new computational and experimental technologies to better model and assay the interactions between our gut microbes and our health.
